Dubstep | R Rated #46

Posted by on September 12, 2012

Kicking off this weeks R Rated is an upcoming bomb remix from Darth & Vader. For just a short clip, you really get the feel for this remix…then you go deaf.

Next we have Rekoil, I said it weeks ago that he had some gems on the way and he is most definitely delivering. The track isn’t the normal filth, but it is some tasty deep sh*t.

 50Carrot isn’t an artist Sev and I end up posting often, but he is someone whose work we are very familiar with. He uploaded this clip of this VIP just a few days ago and woah…eardrum killer.

Redacted from my write up about Zomboy’s newest EP, I complained about how he never gives away anything for free. Good thing I took it out because he gave away true fire today.

I originally wasn’t going to post this, I don’t see the big deal about Borgore, he sucks. He gets lucky with remixes, this would be borderline, one of those remixes. I can see why people will go crazy over this though.

Progressive House | Digitalism – Zdarlight (Fedde Le Grand & Deniz Koyu Remix)

Posted by on September 10, 2012

Deniz Koyu and Fedde Le Grand joined forces on a pounding, high energy remix of Digitalism’s 2005 mainstay “Zdarlight,” out today on Toolroom Records. They maintain the recognizable theme from the original but layer in some driving kicks and big synths that boost the intensity and make this an arena-ready crowd pleaser. I feel like both producers left an obvious mark on this track — it maintains the punchy, percussive Dutch vibe that Fedde Le Grand is known for while still delivering plenty of catchy progressive red meat. While I still favor the original, there’s no doubt that this has serious potential to do damage on the dance floor. Head over to Beatport for the download.

Dubstep | Koan Sound – Akira (Habstrakt Remix)

Posted by on August 7, 2012

Habstrakt coming through today with this outstanding remix to Koan Sound’s Akira. He has had this track finished for a while now, but I guess a combination of not having any release plans and lack of use in his sets led to him giving it away for free. Taking the heavy, bass-filled original and giving it that 8-bit Circus Records spin on it with a touch of heavy Habstrakt. It is usually a hit or miss with this style of dubstep, and this one is a hit.

Electro-House, Progressive House | dBerrie – Voices

Posted by on July 30, 2012

dBerrie’s arena-ready track “Voices” is out today on Fedde Le Grand’s Flamingo Recordings. The New York-based producer has rapidly made a name for himself with a high profile performance at Cosmic Opera back in April and remixes of well-known tracks like “Titanium” and “Rolling in the Deep.” His latest original release raises the bar even higher; with a fierce hook and punchy, high-octane synths, “Voices” is definitely something I expect to hear as we head into the final weeks of the 2012 festival season.

Bootleg | 3LAU – Dance Floor Filth 2

Posted by on July 18, 2012

Where to begin? It was just one short year ago 3LAU & the FNT crew were discussing how to get him some of his first couple gigs and now today he’s already performed all across the country including big festivals like Camp Bisco. As 3LAU nears the end of his mashup/bootleg career, he leaves us with a huge mixtape before continuing on to his original productions. The mixtape features twelve tracks, four of which are brand new. It’s summer, you either hate your internship or love having your parents credit card…regardless, take your summer to the next level by downloading the mixtape here.

Hip-Hop, Mixtapes | Caleb James – Ground Up (Mixtape)

Posted by on July 15, 2012

Another post, another Chicago rapper. Caleb James, who is a relatively new face to FNT, released his latest mixtape today, and trust me, it’s a good one. Caleb is unique because he is so versatile. Instead of sticking to solely trap beats, or smoker’s anthems, he varies his beats allowing him to show his various flows. Garnering a couple notable features from fellow SAVEMONEY partners such as Chance the Rapper, Vic Mensa, Nico Segal, and others, it makes for a great listen from start to finish. Be on the lookout for more Caleb and other SAVEMONEY artists.

Dubstep | R Rated #36

Posted by on July 5, 2012

Happy Birthday America. Today is a great day indeed, the day we celebrate kicking ass and taking names. It is an honor to be able to write due to the freedoms that are being celebrated today.

First track this week is a preview of one of the many “Spectrum” remixes that have been surfacing over the past week due to the competition Zedd is holding. This track happens to be Sev’s and my own favorite for the Dubstep remixes of the track. Sam Wire came in smooth, using the samples of the original very well, taking us into a dirty drop. Got my fingers crossed for him, I hope he can come out on top with this awesome remix.

Tut Tut Child came through with  my favorite Drumstep track of the week. The isn’t overdone which tends to happen a lot in the styling of Drumstep. Tut Tut Child keep it simple but composed creatively, delivering a raw track.

Jiclo isn’t a name I don’t think anyone is very familiar with, but this track is dirty. Getting crunk on some nasty drops.

Did someone say Gundam remix? Count me in. This remix swept me off my feet, having blasted me with giant Gundam bass cannons. Epic.

Savant has been showing some teeth in the past few months. He is back again with another freebie. This one happens to be an older work of his that he found, but also stated that maybe he will tweak and refinish it.
